Boot Camp

The Email

"Abby get up!" "ughhh please just ten more minutes!" " No Abby You are meeting your friends today you have to get up!" "Oh yea," I picked my face up out of my pillow and sat up, I walked over to my dresser and picked out the usual, light blue hoodie, black leggings and my converse, I pulled my socks on and went back over to my bed and put my hair into a high pony (which wasn't easy!) and then I picked up my phone and saw the same three notifications that I have everyday, from Snapchat, from Natalie my old bestie, Ava my cousin and Rachel, my other friend. I was poking around on Instagram then it happened, *ding* EMAIL FROM BRYERS CREEK EQUESTRIAN BOOT CAMP. " oh, my, god." I quickly went over to email and read the email

" not much just waiting for you;)" I nudged Raya and laughed, " ok you to me and Olivia are going to Tim's, wanna come," " yea!" " sure that sounds fun!" I had to tell them, but what if they hadn't gotten the email yet, I mean don't want to be the only one that got in, maybe I shouldn't say anything yet. Yeaaaa to late. " hey guys wait!" " what's up?" " Ummm so this morning I got an email f-from Bryers Creek Equestrian Boot Camp... I got in!" there was a short yet long pause. " Good cuz I thought I was goin alone!" " Wait Raya you got in too!" " Yea, I got the email this morning too... well looks like were going to boot camp together!!!" " wait what about you guys?" " I mean I can't speak for Emma but I'm still waiting," " me too." " It's ok guys, your gonna get that email soon enough!"

LATER THAT NIGHT

I was alone sitting in my room practically throwing things in a suit case, and then I got a text from Raya,

Raya: Hey wut r u doing?

Me: not much

Me: just slowly packing cuz I know I won't do it when I need to;)

Raya: lol yea I should probs do the same

Me: Lol

Raya: so r u exited, nervous, happy?

Me: Yea bit of everything

Raya: yea well the best thing to do is just get some rest!

Me: yea I guess.

Me: but first I'm going out to see Ivey

Raya: I like that idea, goin to see Bella

Me: lol g'night

Raya: night!

I walked out to the barn and pulled the door open and I walked over to her stall, " hey Ivey," she was laying down, so I went in her stall and sat down beside her, "we're going to camp Ivey, we're finally going to camp." I sat with Ivey for the rest of the night and by ten thirty we we're asleep in her stall together.
